According to the official Weibo of SINOMACH, the world's largest single solar power station project contracted by SINOMACH - Eldafra PV2 solar power station has been fully completed.

Cable, in electrical and electronic systems, a conductor or group of conductors for transmitting electric power or telecommunication signals from one place to another. Electric communication cables transmit voice messages, computer data, and visual images via electrical signals to telephones, wired radios, computers, teleprinters, facsimile machines, and televisions. There is no clear distinction between an electric wire and an electric cable.

Engineering, the application of science to the optimum conversion of the resources of nature to the uses of humankind. The field has been defined by the Engineers Council for Professional Development, in the United States, as the creative application of “scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination;

Problem solving is common to all engineering work. The problem may involve quantitative or qualitative factors; it may be physical or economic; it may require abstract mathematics or common sense. Of great importance is the process of creative synthesis or design, putting ideas together to create a new and optimum solution.

With a plethora of aerial fiber cable products on the market today it can be difficult to differentiate and fully appreciate why one construction is or isn’t more suitable than another.This blog aims to outline the different options once you’ve decided to go down the aerial route – for a more detailed look at the factors affecting the choice of aerial deployments take a look at this previous post.Taking a very broad overview of the aerial installation solutions presently available, there are two distinct approaches: either installing fiber into an aerial drop tube or microduct, or deploying a stand-alone self-supporting cable.Normally the fiber-in-duct approach will require two installation phases, whereas the self-supporting aerial cable route can be deployed in one stage. From this you’d assume that the self-supporting cable solution reduces labor costs.

Overhead fiber optic cable is an optical cable installed on poles. One of the most advantage for the overhead fiber optic cable is that it can use the original overhead wire and pole infrastructure. This overhead laying method can save a lot of construction costs and shorten the construction period.Since the overhead fiber optic cables are hung on electric poles, they are required to be able to adapt to various natural environments. They are generally used for long-distance lines, and overhead fiber cables are also suitable for dedicated network optical cable lines or some local special sections.

Aerial fiber optic cable refers to a kind of fiber optic cable that is designed and used for outside plant (OSP) installation between poles by being lashed to a wire rope messenger strand with a small gauge wire. Generally speaking, they are usually made of heavy jackets and strong metal or aramid strength members. Adopting aerial fiber optic cables, the aerial construction will allow the installers to reuse the existing pole infrastructure without digging up other roads to bury cables or ducts, and will also save the capital expenditure for the network providers to some degree.

When you walk on the street, have you noticed at the fiber cables hanging on the poles overhead? These cables are commonly called as aerial fiber cables, which are widely used for outside plant (OSP) installation on poles. Aerial fiber cables are designed to accommodate the severe environment preventing the destruction of the nature and man-made damage or theft. There are also different types of aerial fiber optic cables. This article will describe the common installation ways and things to notice during installation.

Several years ago, I received a phone call from OSHA asking me about aerial fiber optic cable installation. The concern was based on the recent electrocution deaths of two installers working with all-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cables on utility poles with a mixture of high-voltage and telecom cables. In both cases, the installers were attaching a type of fixture that was just a guide for ADSS cable to a pole.If you are not familiar with ADSS cable, it is a special type of lightweight outside plant aerial cable designed for very high-tensile loads so it can be installed without a separate steel messenger to support it. It can be installed over very long spans, up to several kilometers in some cases, making it popular for use in rugged terrain to run between poles or towers, across rivers, canyons or other areas where supports cannot be easily installed.

Our team at GP Associates, Inc. offers a comprehensive range of services to help you make your business facility the best it can be, whether you are upgrading an existing building or campus or building a new one. In any construction process, one thing you’ll need to consider is how to connect your utilities to the building. When it comes to things like power, telephone lines, and fiber optic cables, you will need to choose between underground and aerial cable installation. While our team offers both, in this article, we’ll be focusing on aerial installation, going over its pros and cons to help you make an informed decision on the matter.

The XLPE insulation material is produced by chemically cross-linking polyethylene molecules. This process enhances the material’s strength and stability, improving its ability to withstand high temperatures and electrical stresses. XLPE cable has a higher operating temperature compared to PVC (polyvinyl chloride) insulated cables.

XLPE insulated cable is a chemical or physical method that transforms the cable-insulating polyethylene molecules from a linear molecular structure into a main network structure.That is, the thermoplastic polyethylene is converted into a thermosetting cross-linked polyethylene, thereby greatly improving it. 

Ok, the above is the difference between xLPE insulated power cable and ordinary power cable, as well as the advantages of XLPE insulated power cable, I hope you have an understanding. In addition, xiaobian also special remind you: the cross-linked cable on the market, due to different production processes, the product performance is also relatively uneven, so, we should pay attention to the selection of cross-linked cable.

XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) insulated power cables are an essential component of modern electrical power transmission and distribution systems. They are used to carry electrical power from generators and transformers to various load centers such as homes, businesses, and factories. XLPE insulated cables offer several advantages over traditional cables, including better electrical properties, higher current-carrying capacity, greater resistance to moisture, and improved mechanical strength. This essay will explore the properties and applications of XLPE insulated power cables in detail.

XLPE insulated cable has a number of advantages compared with paper insulated cable and PVC insulate cable.

The conductor of the cable can be copper or aluminum and aluminum alloy.The number of cores can be single core, two core, three core, four core (including four core cross-sections and "Three big and one small" type with a small cross-section neutral core), five core (including five-core cross-sections，"Three big and two small" type with two small-section neutral wire cores，"Four big and one small" type with a small cross-section ground core).

The XLPE insulated cable, also known as the XLPE insulated wire, boasts a simple annealed twisted and solid circular copper conductor, encompassed by XLPE insulation and finished with a PVC outer sheath. We offer an extensive selection of low voltage 0.6/1kv cables ranging from one core to five cores. The cross-linked polyethylene insulated cable/wire finds extensive application in power distribution, transmission, and various network power systems. Rest assured, our XLPE insulated power cable adheres to the stringent standards of IEC 60502、IEC 60228、IEC 60332, BS, DIN and ICEA ensuring top-notch quality and reliability.
